While the rest of the world has been lamenting the year that was 2016, I have been quietly sitting back. The kid in the corner. Yes, the earth is falling apart - real shit has happened this year - but can we actually expect it to be better in the next? I'm not promoting a… Continue reading reflecting on the year that was.
Month: December 2016
the sustainers :: auguste the label.
This Sydney weather is playing topsy-turvy with my whole life. From 30+ degrees to winter and back again in a matter of days, bringing the warmest of jumpers back out of hiding and inducing a pre-Christmas dreaded illness. That and extreme emotions arising - teary eyes for no reason, anger at my messy handbag, on and… Continue reading the sustainers :: auguste the label.
christmas outfits of your dreams.
Let me help you decide on the Christmas outfit of perfection. This month, instead of reliving the awing beauty of just one collection, I thought we'd do a little grouping. I'm feeling a need to deliver the Christmas spirit through outfit choices, because my apartment is lacking in any signs of the holidays ( the… Continue reading christmas outfits of your dreams.
the mooncup trial.
You didn't ask for this, but I'm giving it to you anyway. A breakdown of my first mooncup experience. You either love it or hate it; become a sort of preacher or naysayer. This may be one of the most divisive little implements of the year between women of all-sorts. Initially, the hippie image really… Continue reading the mooncup trial.
oh the irony :: an underdog story.
If you had told me seven years ago, while completing the HSC, that I would now be taking part in a fashion writing mentorship with Janice Breen-Burns and VAMFF, I would have laughed in your face. I would have made you feel stupid and offended with that evil teenage ability. Clearly it is now I… Continue reading oh the irony :: an underdog story.
fashion envy.
Do you ever get that feeling when you walk past girls wearing their fancy Miu Miu shoes and carrying a Celine shopping bag? You know the feeling? Taste the envy. Linger on the disdain ( where did they get that kind of money from? Not themselves I’m sure... ). I can browse as many magazines and photoshoots… Continue reading fashion envy.
anatomy of :: the canadian tuxedo.
Two important points of reflection for you, my friends. #1. How great is the Canadian tuxedo? The perfect pairing of denim on denim - one that is so daring, so difficult to pull off, that it will only work if you flaunt it. Be confident and everyone will believe you. It's a lesson in boosting… Continue reading anatomy of :: the canadian tuxedo.
find your dream :: grace bonney.
The other day was significantly, and very depressingly, uninspiring. If I can flick through Pinterest without some sort of excitement it is definitely bad ( normally I have to set myself a time limit because I get so carried away in it all ). Not even chocolate helped. If my eyes weren't so exhausted from all… Continue reading find your dream :: grace bonney.
